Course Description

If your heart is set on studying A-Levels and would like an environment that is different from the traditional school environment, then A-Levels at MidKent College could be your perfect next step.

Based at our Sixth Form Centre in Maidstone, you will be taught by specialist lecturers who will support you to gain the qualifications, skills and confidence to progress to university-level study, an apprenticeship, or into employment.

You will study three A-Levels over a two-year period. Please confirm your preferred A-Level subjects through the application process. (Within the A-Level application process, please read the information for all the subjects you are interested in studying prior to applying, once you are ready to apply – choose 1 of your choices- at this point you will see two sets of drop-down boxes to choose your remaining 2 subjects.)

Law (Awarding Body: OCR)


A-Level Law plays a vital and wide-ranging role in society and has functions within our society that includes protecting the public, regulating relationships, the construction of agreements and the resolution of disputes. Throughout A-Level Law there is very much a ‘case study’ approach, in which legal principles are applied to real-life cases. It is the combination of these case studies raising real and relevant issues that makes this an engaging, yet challenging subject to study. Among a number of topics you will explore core units on the Nature of Law, English Legal System, Criminal Law and Tort Law. You will be assessed entirely through examination and there is no coursework component at this time.

Other Important Information

We strongly encourage students to purchase appropriate textbooks for each subject. More detail will be given to you during enrolment.

If you have started A Levels elsewhere, you may be able to transfer to MidKent College. We will interview applicants to discuss what they had studied to date and with what examining board. We can then decide on an individual basis if a transfer to the college is appropriate.
